About this property

270 Black Bear Retreat

Black Bear Retreat is a luxury 3 bedroom log cabin in Phase 2 of Mountain Shadows Resort. There is a spacious parking area fronting a 36' x 8' porch with outdoor ceiling fans and lighting with rocking chair seating and a porch swing to relax in and enjoy the view. Step inside to a large great room with a gas log fireplace and large flat screen Smart TV with cable service (Login capable to your personal NetFlix, Vudu, Prime, and other Web TV accounts). There is a cushy soft love seat and sofa to relax in while watching your favorite movie, show, or sporting event. The kitchen offers ample cabinet space, granite counter tops, smooth-top range, dishwasher and side-by-side refrigerator. The dining table and seating is part of an Amish furniture set that also includes the master bedroom king size bed and the 2 queen size beds in the upstairs bedrooms. Rounding out the sleeping accommodations is a sleeper sofa in the larger upstairs bedroom. Each bedroom has its own flat screen Smart TV. On the rear deck is a large, 3-burner natural gas grill and a hot tub nestled amongst Smoky Mountain Rhododendron. The owner has designed the interior for families, especially keeping that in mind as her own family will be visiting often.

Clean and Comfortable

The cabin and furnishings were very nice. The location is excellent. It’s equipped with high speed internet, a smart TV in the living room, TVs in all three bedrooms, and a gas fireplace. But we spent most of our time sitting on the front porch.

House is very damp. Had to put things in dryer to eliminated moisture

There was no room # on our check in. We drove around for over an hour until the manager finally called us back. It was pouring down rain which made it for a very stressful situation. We had been driving since 8:00 am. The cottage was very damp. We had heavy humidity it the house. I know the owners had no control but the construction immediately next door was an eyesore. There should also be paper towels, Kleenex, and clothes detergent supplied. We have never stayed at a Vrbo where those have never been supplied. When we were getting ready to leave two men came to the door to check on the air conditioner without warning. Other than that we enjoyed our stay

Wonderful cabin, great location!

We loved this cabin! Very clean and comfy, peaceful and private. Close to downtown Gatlinburg, but also far enough away. Booking and check-in process were painless, and owner was responsive when we had questions. Great experience!

Beautiful clean cabin in a GREAT location

If you want all the charm of a mountain cabin in a great location, this is your place! From the flat parking upon arrival to the beautiful front porch, secluded lot and beautifully decorated inside, to say we were happy with our experience is an understatement! This was more than we expected and we would definitely stay here again! The furnishings were ample and the hot tub was a great addition. If I had to pick one draw back, it would be the washer. It did get off balance very easy and make some big noise, but balancing it and restarting solved that. The perks of the place including proximity to Gatlinburg, Pigeon Forge and the National Park, flat parking and the beautiful clean cabin made us quickly forget about a washer!

Family Getaway

The cabin is beautiful!! I loved how cozy and nice it is. Rooms are big and spacious, super clean and organized. They have everything you need there. It says it sleeps 8 but it can sleep 10. Big sofa in the living room does turn into s bed. There's a couple things that I didn't like. First, they do not send you check information you have to call and they tell you where to go to check in. Second, it doesn't have much parking space, it only parks 1 car and lastly the washer is old and doesn't wash good, it makes lots of noise. But overall I love it! it's close to downtown Gatlinburg. Do recommend staying here if riding all in one car.
